I just threw this out as a general idea to get people thinking why there are unions hoping they would at least look at child labor and see what happened in the past.This is a big part of who we are now and also its what made this a good country.Some people wont ever understand because they wont look at what happened in history,or will believe whatever lie some propaganda mill is pushing that day.Unions made this country.There is way more to the story than the idea that unions used to be good now they outlived their usefulness crowd.If there werent any unions tomorrow,and about 75% of them from 1980 are gone,we would be in a lot worse condition.The big wheels that make lots of money,the politicians that represent them,and a lot of other stupid people,dont care if you work all day and cant afford to live on your pay.Thats the whole problem with things now.People mostly work for non union companies,now it doesnt matter what minimum wage is,its not enough money to live on.Unions dont have much pull because they have been beat down to nothing.I could be wrong,but it looks to me like all of the politicians are representing big money.When that happens things dont get better for working people. This is something there is no excuse for.Lots of people fought in wars so we could have a good country for us to live in.For a bunch of crooked and greedy politicians to give it all away for a few dollars is retarded.Its even worse when working people agree with them.Before anybody says how bad unions are from now on they first need to read about how things were without unions.I dont have time in the rest of my life,and dont know words enough to describe,all the things wrong with whats going on now.Yeah the UAW got a little extravagant,but those are multinational companies.In China they have slaves working for them.Its real disgusting when you look at the whole story.It will be a lot better to keep unions than to ruin the company to get rid of them.Anything that helps working people from now on will just be an accident as a crooked politician does something for rich people that own the company and a benefit might trickle down to help the worker.Isnt that what the non union crowd is saying?Isnt that the way it works now?

Today's Featured Article - Restoration Story: Fordson Major - by Anthony West. George bought his Fordson Major from a an implement sale about 18 years ago for £200.00 (UK).
